Re: [Evolution] Evolution version 3.30.5-1.1 crashing & logging me out of Debian 10.5
Many thanks Angel. Your suspicions sound solid here as I have received some Debian updates recently about potential issues with the X server. I didn't pursue them to see if this was something that might impact me. After looking at your advice, some dots have just formed and connected for me. Especially the fact that the windowing systems crashes and I get logged out at the same time. Perhaps it is purely just co- incidental that Evolution was the only application that I was running each time this happened and Evolution had nothing to do with the crash and being logged out of Debian. I'm going to go back to the Debian security updates I received in the past regarding X server and follow up. -denni On Wed, 2020-12-02 at 00:06 +0100, Ángel wrote: > dmesg ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

Hello Dennis Your description makes me think that rather than evolution, the crashing program may actually be xorg (the X server). When the X server crashes, all graphical applications will close as well, including evolution and your desktop. It would then respawn and let you log in again, thus the conclusion that you have been logged-out. I don't know why your xorg would be crashing (a faulty update? issues with the hardware/drivers?). You should be able to find on dmesg some lines pointing to the program that failed.

Many thanks Milan. I'll start right here and see where this takes me.

I presume that update did it, does that sound likely. My desire to throw a keyboard at the monitor has been reduced a couple of notches ...

Re: [Evolution] Evolution equivalent of Thunderbird's folder offset?

Hi, you can run Evolution from a terminal like this: $ CAMEL_DEBUG=imapx:io evolution which will print raw communication from all enabled IMAP accounts. It contacts NAMESPACE responses. While the Inbox itself is case insensitive, I suggest to follow the case as reported by the server. You should see your set namespace in LIST and LSUB commands.

Hi, it's very hard to guess what the cause is without having at least a backtrace of the crash. You can get it with gdb, when you attach it to the running evolution and when evolution crashes you issue the related commands. As you said you are logged out of the session, I'd just run Evolution, then switch to the text terminal (Ctrl+Alt+F3), log in there, then run: $ gdb --batch --pid=`pidof evolution` --ex c --ex bt \ --ex "t a a bt" &>~/bt.txt then switch back to the graphical console (Alt+F1 or Alt+F2 usually) and then just use Evolution.

I usually search for "pass" at least (quotes for clarity only), before you share it anywhere. You said it begun recently. That may mean something updated, causing the crash. Maybe the WebKitGTK had been updated to some recent version say 2.30.x, which causes some issues with drag I do not know how your distribution calls the WebKitGTK package, maybe webkit2gtk3, or libwebkit2gtk3 or completely differently. If it had been updated, then I'd try to downgrade it.
